I did read it, but did not maybe digest it fully. Just trying to keep working away on the project, which is allready fairly far down my current way of working things.
I see that using the routing names would allow me to not have to do checks the account type id's. However, at the moment the application does not work in this way for all user account types. I.e. there is admin/ routing, and then one other user type with routing. However, there is also a lower user level, where they do not have pre-fixes for their actions. Hopefully I have understood it properly, but maybe not. But given that its not possible for me to just use the prefix routing check, is there a good way of getting rid of my magic numbers. Usually I would just define them as standard PHP constants. Thanks for your time.
